Leave the path at your peril. Especially when the path marks the only safe passage through an underground city buried deep beneath the surface of the modern world.
Karen enjoys her work as a guide for the City Beneath the City tour—except for the occasional problem tourist, like the two twelve-year-old boys who ditched Karen’s group to go exploring on their own.
The first city known as Moretown Bay disappeared beneath the mud over a hundred years ago. Thanks to a few well-placed spells, a handful of those old buildings give modern tourists a glimpse into the city’s past.
But danger lies beyond the safety of the tour. Unstable buildings. Shifting mud. Passageways that come and go seemingly by magic.
Finding two lost boys turns into a desperate fight for survival against the things that live deep under the old, buried city in this exciting story from the Mazes and Labyrinths issue of The Uncollected Anthology.
